100th Post: Vacation Mani’s

Hey friends! Today marks one of my first blogger milestones:100 posts.I have to admit I’m really quite shocked. I didn’t even realize I was thisclose until this past week. Thankfully everything worked out nicely and I havea perfect 100th post to share: my vacation manis! It’s a bit long but hey, it’s only fitting given the occasion. So let’s get started!

For the journey I decided to use I Am The Walrus by Enchanted Polish.It’s one of those polishes that needs nothing. It just sparkles and makes your lifea little less bleak. I loved the coppery shimmer and the golden flecks. It also had thisflash of green or pink sometimes. I honestly can’t say enough about this polish.

Just look at that holo. Sparkle fantastic.Application was flawless. Bit sheer on the first coat but it built up nicely.

Look 2 – Electric Fishies

Yes that’s right, another EP. This beauty is Electric Feel by Enchanted Polish.Most of the time this would go light green or silver and it was sooo beautiful in the sunlight.Then I paired it with these decals from Nail Polish Canada.

& the sun shots….

Look 3 – Lychee Deco Accent

During one of our evenings we decided to watch Gone With The Wind.I love that movie. All the drama and the intense acting makes me swoon.So it only felt fitting to use my O’Hara by piCture pOlish. Then… I had a nail art melt down when what I wanted to do wasn’t working out. Thankfully Gee was kind enough to do some accent fingers for me using stripping tape & Lychee by Barry M. I think it turned out really perfect. Except for the I forgot-my-nails-were-painted smudge. Oh well.

I love the tiny little pink flecks in O’Hara. So subtle (unlike Scarlet) but so so perfect.

Look 4 – Fruity Stripes

For the last few days of our trip I wanted to use some more of my Barry M’s.First I did a base of Strawberry by The Nail Junkie.Then I added Dragonfruit & Papaya by Barry M.

Don’t mind the indent on my thumb nail. This time I thought they were dry already. Apparently not.I didn’t really care though because the overall effect was still great.

So that’s it! Do you have a favourite look out of the 4? Let me know!Thank you to everyone who’s stuck around long enough to see me hit 100. I’m excited to see where else my blog will go.
